The TRIO Student Support Services Program (SSS) at Volunteer State Community College is a federally funded program. The program is funded fully through the U.S. Department of Education. The main objective of this program is to provide eligible Vol State students increased educational opportunities in order to promote academic success. It is the intent of the TRIO Student Support Services staff to provide various services and cultural activities that will enhance the experiences a program participant has inside and outside of the classroom. The overall goals are to (a) retain and graduate eligible program participants and (b) to offer support in an environment that fosters learning for those students whose parents did not attend or complete a college degree and/or whose family income may hamper them from remaining in college without financial assistance.

The TRIO Student Support Services staff is available to serve participants in order to ensure that academic and cultural needs are being met. We are committed to making the educational experience possible in order to promote academic success and a love of learning.
